Close to their existing mold, but even better...they're coupes! Fantastic news, hopefully they actually make it to production.

I have all four of the STINGRAY racers, I would love to add that Le Mans car to the collection. You can never go wrong with the Carosel 1 models, they are super nice

Even better if I could find them on clearance for $49 like I did the 4 convertibles!

I know they're new, but I can wait...

I saw that. Damn.... Just when you thought you had every cool Corvette model, they do this. I blame the Bush Administration. These are very nice models. Not as highly detailed as Exoto's GS series, but perhaps an even better value.

Yeah. I'll need these as well

Do you guys all pre-order from this site???? or do you use any other??

I have never done a pre-order on a carosuel, and my usual places don't seem to know about them.

Also what is the cost?? something I like to know before pre-ordering

I would not get in too big of a hurry. It may be while before these get made. Distributors have very little info if any from Carousel One yet.
Pricing is supposed to be $129.95 for these the same as the last issues.

Here is the most info I have found. http://www.nationaldiecasters.com/ca...ecorvettes.htm

John was just messing with me, I think he knows my addiction to C5R/ C6R racing diecast
